Legal resource hub launched to fight GBV
A free to access information hub has been launched online for those seeking guidance and help regarding the complexities of the law around gender-based violence (GBV).
The Action Against Gender Based Violence Resource Centre – a partnership between legal technology company LexisNexis South Africa and non-profit organisation TEARS Foundation – provides relevant legislation, legal templates, case law, expert guidance and commentary relevant to the scourge of GBV.
It was launched during the virtual LexisNexis Rule of Law Café on Friday, 4 December, commemorating the global 16 Days of Activism campaign. This year’s theme ‘Orange the World: Fund, Respond, Prevent, Collect!’ calls for support of funding organisations and initiatives that respond to survivors and prevent GBV.
